Michael Kearsing Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Knight-Auchmoody Funeral Home on Sep. 14, 2025.
Michael Kearsing of Hawley passed away on September 14, 2025 at Bon Secours Community Hospital. He was 74 years old.

The son of the late Jean and Junior R. Kearsing, he was born on October 25, 1950 in Spring Valley, NY.

Michael proudly served his country in the United States Marine Corps, where his dedication to service always remained close to him. A man of faith, Michael was a member of the White Mills Community Church, a place that meant a lot to him. He settled in the serene Fawn Lake Forest community, where he lived by the lake and became a beloved figure known for his warm, sociable nature. Always ready with a smile and a story, he enjoyed engaging conversations with neighbors during their walks.

In addition to his parents Michael was predeceased in life by his sister in law Anne Kearsing.

Beloved brother of John R. Kearsing, Peter Kearsing, Marc Kearsing with his wife Kim Stevenson and Lisa Bell. We would be remiss not to mention his devoted fur friend Callie. Michael was an uncle to several nieces and nephews.

A memorial service will take place 11:00AM on Saturday October 11th at the White Mills Community Church 17 Church Street, Hawley PA 18428. Cremation took place at MacLennan Hall Crematorium, Milford.

In lieu of flowers donations may be made to the White Mills Community Church in Michael's memory.

Please make use of the Tribute Wall by leaving a memory or condolence for the family.
